Arsenal vs Liverpool: Match Preview and Prediction
Arsenal vs Liverpool: Following their victory over Nottingham Forest in the Premier League by a score of 1-2, Arsenal will be trying to replicate the successful performance they had previously achieved.
Arsenal had 74% control and two of their 19 efforts on goal were on target. Arsenal scored through Bukayo Saka (72′) and Gabriel Jesus (65′). There were eight shots on goal for Nottingham Forest, but just one was on target. Taiwo Awoniyi scored Nottingham Forest’s 89th-minute goal.
Arsenal has struggled lately, playing the full 90 minutes. Arsenal has conceded eight goals in five of their past six games, which will worry them. If that pattern continues here, we’ll see.
Liverpool will be coming into the game fresh off a 4-1 Premier League victory against Chelsea. Liverpool had 51% possession in that game and only four of their 28 total attempted shots on goal were on target.
Diogo Jota (23′), Conor Bradley (39′), Dominik Szoboszlai (65′), and Luis Díaz (79′) scored for Liverpool. Conversely, Chelsea made four shots on goal, only one of which was on target. Christopher Nkunku scored for Chelsea in the 71st minute.
Liverpool has scored 24 goals in their last six games, averaging 4 per match, demonstrating their preference for high-scoring encounters. Six goals have come from opponents. Liverpool had won all seven away league games before this one.
